London Fire Department, Station 12, C Squad have to save their N95s for medical calls, giving any extra to London Health Sciences, so they asked the St Matthew's, Florence, stitchers for facemasks. They said they didn't mind if they were pretty. So they got pretty ones!

Prayer

3/28/2020

From our Deacon-in-Charge:
​Over the next few weeks you will likely hear quite a lot about "prayer" here. 
It is something that you can do now. Whenever you pray, whatever you say, be assured that God is listening. 
At the same time, it is something that is also enriched by our coming together: something that we wait for. 
Shirley Sewell, our warden and frequent intercessor at St. Matthew's Church in Florence, has passed on this prayer. You will hear a version of it prayed this Sunday. You are free to offer up these words to God, right now. Read them, pray them, and hope for the day when we can join our prayers together in body and in Spirit. 
Justin

A note from Enrique

3/27/2020

0 Comments

 
​Enrique Martinez was our student assistant/curate here in the parish a bit ago, and lately takes parish Sunday services wherever needed.
Like most of us, he is home during the COVID-19 shutdowns, but he sent this note to the parish, along with his telephone number and email address. If you wish that contact information, write to us via the box at the bottom of the CONTACT US page. 

God has given me a lot of time to pray for our family of the Transfiguration. That is perfect. For our Bishop Todd and all our priests. And all of you. 

I hope everyone in the parish is ok. Please tell everyone to keep strong because God is with us. Also support each other because we are Christians. And pray for everyone because God is listening now to all our prayers.  

Remember what I said in my homily: God gives us time to be with our families because this is more important for all of us. 

God gives us a moment to think about what we are doing with our planet. 

Jesus is suffering for us because he loves us and gave his life for us.

God gives us the opportunity to be one church, and together may our planet, his creation, be truly a home for all of us.

The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of you.

I love all my Parish of the Transfiguration family and I keep praying for all of you.

God bless you all.

Enrique

A couple of pews of Transfiguration parishioners, clergy, lay readers, family and friends, were on hand March 4 to celebrate with the Rev'd Dr. Justin Comber as he was ordained a deacon by the Right Rev'd Todd Townshend, Bishop of Huron.
Joan Cofell sent this record of the night:

A healthier Shrove Tuesday!

Fresh fruit kabobs are always on the menu at the St Matthew's Pancake supper as a delicious "anticarb".
They are as popular as the pazckis!
Here, the talented kabob construction crew gets started.
We have no further photos of the evening, as this was the last moment of calm before a syrupy storm!
